The correct answer is D. because he thinks the old woman is too old and ugly.

Indeed, in Chaucer’s the Wife of Bath’s Tale, is the story of an Arthurian knight that raped a young woman and was sentenced to death.  Queen Guinevere convinces King Arthur to let her choose a different punishment. The Knife has to find the answer to the question of what women most want. The knife interrogates many different women but gets many different answers. Finally, he meets an old woman who agrees to tell him if he promises to do what she will later ask of him. She provides the knight with the answer: what women most want is to rule their husbands.

In exchange she asks him to marry her and he is repulsed by her old age and ugliness.

B.) In his poem, “The White Man's Burden,” Rudyard Kipling never actually defines the white man's burden. ... The white man's burden is to work hard to help people (“To seek another's profit,/And work another's gain) who do not want to be helped. The white man's burden, then, is the set of problems that comes with imperialism.

Read the excerpt from the poem "Queen of the Cats":
Maslowich

Answer:

b) Metaphor

Explanation:

Using one object to symbolize another is known as a metaphor. One of my favorite lines from the poem "Queen of the Cats" describes how the cat's eyes would literally "spark with firelight fantasies" as she gazed into the flames.

Because the cat's imagination is represented by the firelight, this is a metaphor. Poets may employ metaphors to help their readers envision their work in a new manner. Firelight serves as a metaphor in this poem for the cat's eyes, which seem bright and full of imagination.
